Hurricane Sandy began breaking up as it hit the New Jersey shore Monday evening on what's expected to be a destructive path across the Northeast, plunging more than 3 million into darkness, flooding beach towns and crippling transportation across a huge swath of the Eastern U.S.

Sandy made landfall at Atlantic City, N.J., about 6:45 p.m. ET, throwing off sustained winds of 90 mph, NBC New York reported. By 8 p.m., its center was about 5 miles southwest of Atlantic City and about 40 miles nprtheast of Cape May, N.J. Maximum sustained winds had fallen to 80 mph.

The National Hurricane Center re-designated Sandy as a "post-tropical cyclone," saying it was rapidly losing its tropical characteristics as it merged into an enormous nor'easter. Regardless, it was still packing hurricane-force winds, and "it's only going to get worse," Mike Seidel, a meteorologist with The Weather Channel, told MSNBC TV from Point Pleasant, N.J.

Pretty sure parts of England resembled that a while ago and not as big a fuss was made.

My friends over there said its not half as bad as they were expecting.

Exactly what I was saying this morning.

If any of the towns or cities that flooded this summer had underground systems it would do exactly the same thing

Yes but i think thats the point, rural communities that flooded didnt have underground systems, train links, the financial costs for this is quite staggering.

This is a major city thats pretty much been bought to a standstill.
